Running on Debian 10, kernel 5.0.21-1, I've tried two adding to 
/proc/cmdline both

a) tsc=reliable 

b) tsc=unstable

not using one of these options gives a huge time drift to the system.

using A worked, but TSC is not as precise as HPET.
using B is best, because time does not drift and clocksource is now HPET.
